Answer 1
Answer: It is tenuous ( D ) as Aristophanes makes fun of how WEAK Chaerephon actually is . And tenuous actually means very weak or slight. 

I hope I Helped!!!!!!!!!! :))
Answer 2
Answer:

From my point of understanding the question, the given options have different meaning. However, a pair of slipper for a flea can never be magnanimous or replete. So it can either be, slender or tiny. Therefore, I suggest you to opt minuscule. As the feet of the flea are tiny and Chaerephon drenches it so that it might not bite him again.

Option-B is the correct choice.

Is there anything on your mind now that you cant stop thinking about? Maybe that would be a good start.
You could write about a time when you maybe visited your grandparents and you haven't seen them in a long time and visiting them affected you because they are the ones who brought you here and they mean so much to you.
If that isnt the case than maybe write about a trip/visit you've recently made and you couldnt stop thinking about it. Maybe youve learned some new things on the way or maybe you realized what quality time with your family means. These are just a few ideas. Hope it helps !! ;)
